More Snow!!

On Saturday night we decided to trek over to Mammie and Papa house to spend the night. We already knew that church was cancelled (due to this crazy weather) and Mammie had a great day of Christmas activities planned for Sunday. We had a wonderful "Christmas" with them. The boys got to open a little gift (Ninja wouldn't stop talking about presents the ENTIRE day) and we played a fun white elephant game. I love the holidays when the whole family can get together! Uncle Mister came home yesterday (on leave from the Air Force) and it's so great to have him around. The boys just love him!


Sunday evening Antonio and I debated for a long time about whether we would try to make it home or not. It had been continually snowing all day and the roads had become icy from some freezing rain. At 10:30pm we finally decided to try and if we didn't make it we'd just come back. It took a little while driving 25mph, but we did eventually make it to our humble abode. However, when we pulled out to our street we noticed that there was no way we could get our car anywhere close to the driveway. Scott parked down the road a little bit and left the car on while he went to start shoveling the driveway. I didn't take into account the parking issue when deciding on whether to drive home or not. Good ol' Antonio got a great workout at 11pm. These pictures are from when we got home last night, but we got about 5-6 more inches last night.





Working on clearing the driveway






Look at him go!




Finally got the car up the driveway












The snowpile just outside our front door. It's a lot bigger than it looks because it's covering a step.
